Hosting over 5.5 million guests annually, Landal provides unparalleled holiday choices in all seasons.
The challenges
Managing such an expansive network presented a complex set of IT challenges:
- Landal’s previous software system lacked multi-language and multi-currency support, making international expansion difficult—especially after adding several UK parks.
- An outdated user interface reduced usability, slowing down employee onboarding and delaying time-to-market for new locations.
- The need for a scalable, centralised system became more pressing as the company grew.
According to Landal:
“After expanding the franchise network in the UK, we needed a new multi-language and multi-currency solution, and both requirements were available in Maxxton Software.”
Solution
Landal gradually implemented Maxxton’s platform, leveraging its comprehensive management features for bookings, check-ins, inventory, and reservations.
Maxxton’s centralised data management enabled Landal to:
- Manage all parks efficiently while maintaining accurate, real-time data.
- Streamline reservation and content management, simplifying updates and ensuring accuracy.
- Rework workflows and refine business processes for greater operational efficiency.
Wiertz highlights the key advantage:
“We use Maxxton because it enables us to keep all data in one place. It also allows us to control, manage, and continue growing. With Maxxton, I know there are always possibilities.”
Additionally, Maxxton provided continuous support, training, and best practices, helping Landal fully leverage the platform’s capabilities.
A major focus for Landal is automation to scale efficiently. Maxxton’s configurable business rules ensure a seamless transition for newly acquired locations, accommodation types, and units.
“At Landal, we are always looking for ways to automate our processes. One of the advantages of working with Maxxton Software is the quick and easy configuration of newly acquired parks. Furthermore, the API connectivity has been significant in obtaining price and availability data for our website and third-party interfaces.”
